Father,
Will I rise again,
Like Jesus?
Will I live again,
Just like your Son?
Will I walk and talk,
And make new friendships?
Will I work and play
Till day is done?
Touch me with your Spirit, Lord,
And heal me;
Give me life again
Abundantly.
Then I need not wait
Till after death, Lord,
But serve your kingdom here,
Restored, and free.
